Hey Helena
So glad to see a real model on magazine cover these days instead of those familiar Hollywood faces.
Especially ELLE these days seems only with actress on cover, even more artistic magazines like Vogue and Numero are constantly having non-model covers. Therefore, January issue of ELLE looks ‘fresh face’. I always like Helena Christensen, think she’s the ultimate first model who doesn’t just own a pretty face. She’s an thoughtful photographer,Her exhibition A Quiet Story, curated by Jim Cook, premiered in Rotterdam in 2006. Chanel Tokyo’s NEXUS Gallery is scheduled to mount the exhibition in 2010. Also an edgy boutique owner, Christensen has an antiques shop in Manhattan and sells some of her clothes in her mother’s Yo-Yo Second Hand Shop in Christianshavn. She was a part of Nylon magazine as the original creative director.
Since so many Hollywood actress are continuously branding their ‘cool’ by claiming ‘addiction to sex’, her quote is actually quite amusing…’Whenever my head is like a maze, I turn to the easy things in life, the things that mean the most to me: Sex and cheese. These things are connected. Truth be told, I love all cheese’. Simply brilliant!!!
